-

A 23-year-old nursing school graduate in Hong Kong was suspected to have stabbed her parents to death on Fathers Day and committed suicide, Sin Chew Daily reported.

The tragedy, which happened in Tuen Mun, was uncovered by a relative, who turned up to visit the family.

The family had failed to attend a Fathers Day gathering over the weekend and was unreachabl­e.

The man, 60, and his wife, 56, were found dead in separate rooms.

Police also found a 30cm bloodstain­ed knife in the kitchen.

The couple’s daughter was dis- covered with a plastic bag over her head.

It was connected to a helium gas canister.

Police said she left a suicide note, saying that her eczema condition had left her feeling “better dead than alive”.

> A video of an autistic teenager’s extremely neat handwritin­g has attracted more than seven million “likes” on China’s short video app Douyin, China Press reported.

The 15-second clip showed Chinese characters being written.

It went viral because the characters were tidy, as if they were machine printed.

The writer, identified as 16-yearold Lin Wenbing, said his dream was to become a top-notch artist.

Jingzi, the Douyin user who uploaded the video, said Lin had caught her eyes because he was writing and drawing quietly while the rest of the students were not focused on their tasks.
